I was fortunate to have had the opportunity to go to Kathmandu for my schooling despite belonging to a farming, harsh mountainous background. And, working in Marpha after completing B.A. gave me a perspective on the education system in the villages. The thought and realization of quality education not being accessible to every child has always been in the back of my head. After four years in Marpha, I knew I had to look out for something new and greater for my growth. Above all, my experience in Marpha and my unusual childhood and upbringing in a boarding school encouraged me to apply for the Fellowship. I'm hopeful that these two years of Fellowship will help me grow both professionally and personally. Two years of Fellowship at Teach For Nepal will provide a broader understanding of the public schools in Nepal and help pave a path for me to pursue a lifelong teaching career. I will have the opportunity to work with like-minded people and have a great learning experience for me. Since my goals in life align with TFN’s mission, why not Teach For Nepal?
